Mike served as a player development coach, and the directory of player development for the Dallas Mavericks from 2013-2019.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\nAmong his many achievements, Procopio served as a Strategic Game Management Coach for Kobe Bryant from 2009-2012, breaking down his game film as well as giving him insight on upcoming opponents. Bryant won two NBA championships with the Los Angeles Lakers during the four-year period. \u201cHe\u2019s my Jack Bauer,\u201d said Bryant in a 2010 Sports Illustrated article. \u201cHe gave me all the edits and scouting reports and wrote defensive rotations of the Celtics. He was my eyes and ears, so when I played the game I\u2019d use all the scouting reports and all the information. And it was huge for me.\u201d\n\n\n\n\nIn addition to working with Bryant, Procopio served as an NBA Player Development Coach with ATTACK Athletics from 2003-2013 and was an assistant coach for the Maine Red Claws of the NBA Development League (now known as the G League) from 2009-2010.
